Key takeaways from the European Agroforestry Federation Congress — June 2026, Neuchâtel (Switzerland)

• Agroforestry has gone from a marginal green practice to a key driver of farm productivity: old systems are being rediscovered (pre-orchards, wooded pastures, Iberian dehesas).
• Trees are now seen as production infrastructure: less crop stress and erosion, better soil fertility, resilience to drought and heat, diversified income and higher land value.
• Water is the central concern: trees improve infiltration, retain water, reduce evaporation, build organic matter and stabilise the water cycle.
• Profitability matters as much as biodiversity: installation costs, success rates, return on investment, risk reduction and income diversification are now at the heart of research.
• Protecteur Cactus© lets you deploy every protection strategy for your trees, these vital allies. Because thriving trees have a positive impact on asset value on the balance sheet and on profitability in the income statement. And Protecteur Cactus© is widely mentioned for tough missions among ungulates. No surprise!
